Silly question but what other daily click do you do Dinah. I have quidco and topcash back covered.

OK so I thought I was being good just having one MINI Danish Pastry, put it into foodfocus and BAM, 206 calories! That's almost as much as my lunch! Gah! I'm trying to have cereal/porridge for tea this week, see if I can get to 10-st-something instead of 11-st-something.

Bless NIM doing extra work, I have to say whenever I've been in a job that wasn't flexi, I stroll in 5 mins before I have to start out of principle!

I don't actually do any daily clicks except for Butlins scratchies Poolie, I know I'm a bad MSE-r, shoot me now!

Shame about the danish Tete, I'm lucky they don't cross my path often otherwise I'd be a right barrel!

6 more payments on my Bank Studies Loan and 6 on an interest free loan (but the last payment is for £0.14 so do not think they will call for this so 5 payments).

Need to remember to visit Barclays after the 5th payment for the Bank Studies Loan because the payments are made via standing order and they will need to adjust to the final amount so it can be cleared. Should only be about £170 at the end compared to the standard £223 I have been paying for the last 5 years.

So, I'm sad. Having calculated our required spending money to properly enjoy Italy and Ireland without feeling like we're missing out, we're about £600 short! Kind of gutted, but we're not about to put ourselves into difficulties for a trip away, so we're taking the long term approach and are accepting we can't go. But we are considering a week in the lake district instead, lots of hill climbing and the like. Not sure if we won't be flooded off the hills in early October though!

What a shame but the Lakes will be lovely! I highly recommend Haystacks You're doing the right thing if it's going to leave you short.

Anyone else going to see if they can spot these shooting stars tonight? I'm off downstairs to peer through the clouds...

Been on the lake districts tourism website - guess which month of the year has the highest rainfall by far!!!

Oh no! Probably anywhere you go on the Brit Isles will be like that tho in October. It could be quite romantic and charming, could you rent a log cabin somewhere and hole up by the log fire, playing naked scrabble? Oops sorry, drawing on experience there a bit!
